On February 1998, Voyager 1, after
a series of gravitational maneuvers,
crossed the boundaries of our solar
system and cruised beyond the Pioneer
10 spacecraft, to become the most
distant human-made object in space.
At that point, 10.4 billion kilometers
from Earth, the probe left the Solar
System at an incredible record speed
of 62,790 kilometers per hour.
Voyagers 1 and 2 surprised NASA
scientists for its great reliability in
such cold and high radiation dosage
conditions. The fact that the spacecraft
is still returning data is a remarkable
technical achievement by its own.
Both probes still have enough
electricity and attitude control
propellant to continue operating until
about 2020. At that time, Voyager 1
will be more than 20 billion kilometers
away and it will take approximately
21 hours for a radio signal from its 20
watt radio transmitters to reach Earth.
Thank you Voyagers, wherever you
are, for the inspiration. Relational
Corporation – small but successful,
fast and going far!
Ps – We return calls within 21 hours. |
